Roku Hits 70 Million Active Accounts, With Streaming Hours Up 19% In 2022
05.01.2023 - 20:13 / deadline.com
Roku says it has passed 70 million active accounts worldwide, up from 60.1 million at the end of 2021.
The secular shift of viewing from linear to streaming is continuing apace, with total streaming hours via Roku’s interface increasing 19% in 2022. Globally, streaming hours reached 23.9 billion in the fourth quarter, and 87.4 billion in all of 2022, a 19% year-over-year gain.

“As consumers continue the shift to TV streaming, we’re excited that a growing number of people are taking the journey with Roku, and we’re proud to reach this meaningful milestone today,” Roku founder and CEO Anthony Wood said in a press release. “Roku is laser-focused on delivering affordable, easy-to-use products and an operating system that makes streaming accessible to all.
